Specifically, the side surface 840 may extend in a direction perpendicular to the second connection surface 814 . The side surface 840 may include a first end connected to the second connecting surface 814 and a second end connected to the first inclined surface 842 . As shown in Figures 18 and 19, the vertical projection of the side surface 840 on the second connecting surface 814 has a first outer contour 845 which may be circular, oval, racetrack, square or other shape. The vertical projection is a projection along a direction perpendicular to the second connection surface 814 . As shown in FIGS. 11-12 and 18 , if the fitting member 84 is substantially cylindrical, the first outer contour 845 is circular. As shown in FIGS. 8-9 and 19 , if the fitting member 84 is generally in the shape of a flat column, the first outer contour 845 may be in the shape of a racetrack. It can be understood that, in some other embodiments, the side surface 840 can also be inclined relative to the second connecting surface 814 , for example, in the direction from the first end to the second end, the fitting piece 84 is generally in the shape of a cone.

The first inclined surface 842 may be a plane or a curved surface, and the angle between the first inclined surface 842 and the first direction may be 30°-45°, for example, 30°, 35°, 40° or 45°. The smaller the angle, the less force is required to insert the fitting 84 into the electronic device 30 . If the angle is too small, the length of the first inclined surface 842 in the first direction will be longer, and the thickness of the fitting 84 where the first inclined surface 842 is located will be small, which will reduce the strength of the fitting 84; at the same time, if the angle is too small , it will cause the fitting member 84 to be sharper, and it is easy to damage other components of the wearable device 10 or easily cause damage to the user. However, if the angle is too large, the force required to insert the fitting 84 into the electronic device 30 is large. Within the above angle range, the relationship between the force required to insert the fitting 84, the structural strength of the fitting 84, the maintenance of the wearable device 10, and the safety of the user can be well balanced.

Specifically, the end surface 844 is disposed opposite to the second connecting surface 814 , and the end surface 844 is connected to the second end of the side surface 840 and the first inclined surface 842 . The end surface 844 can be a plane, as shown in FIGS. 11-16 and 20; of course, the end surface 844 can also be a curved surface, so as to make a smooth transition between the end surface 844 and the side surface 840, as shown in FIGS. 8-10, so that the The operation of inserting the fitting piece 94 into the fitting part of the electronic device 30 is smoother and more convenient. The vertical projection of the end face 844 on the second connecting surface 814 has a second outer contour 847, which may be fan-shaped, as shown in Figures 11 and 18; or racetrack-shaped, as shown in Figures 8-9 and 19 Show. It can be understood that the second outer contour 847 may also have a circular shape, an oval shape or other shapes, which are not limited in this application. Therein, the second outer contour 847 can completely fall within the first outer contour 845 .

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 8-13 , the end of the fitting 84 away from the main body 82 is generally conical in shape, that is, the end of the fitting 84 away from the main body 82 has a gradual cross-sectional area in the direction away from the main body 82 . is reduced, thereby making it easier to insert the fitting 84 into the electronic device 30 . The end face of the fitting piece 84 is connected to the second end of the side face 840 through the connecting face 846 . In this case, the second outer contour 847 and the first outer contour 845 are spaced apart from each other, as shown in FIGS. 18 and 19 . Wherein, the connecting surface 846 can be a curved surface, so as to make a smooth transition between the side surface 840 and the end surface 844 , as shown in FIGS. 8-9 , so that the fitting member 84 moves more smoothly when it is inserted into the installation slot 232 , reducing the amount of friction between the engaging member 24 Collision wear with the mating piece 84 . It can be understood that the connecting surface 846 can also be a plane, as shown in FIGS. 11-13 .

In some embodiments, a portion of the second outer contour 847 overlaps a portion of the first outer contour 845 and another portion is spaced from each other, as shown in FIGS. 20 and 21 .

As shown in FIGS. 8-16 , the concave portion 85 is formed on the side surface of the fitting member 84 for fitting with the electronic device 30 . The opening of the recessed portion 85 and the first inclined surface 842 are located on the same side of the fitting member 84 .
